Cut & Paste files between my program and Windows Explorer

Question

I can copy files between my program and Windows Explorer in both directions. I want to cut files in my program and paste them in Windows explorer and viceversa cut files in Windows Explorer and paste them in my program. When I do a cut (as opposed to a copy) and paste in Win Explorerr I need to get notification from the Win Explorer that the copy succeeded to be able to delete the file that I cut or if I cut from the Windows explorer and paste in my program I need to notify Windows Explorer that the copy succeeded so that the file can be deleted by the explorer. How do I receive or send these notifications ? Thanks for the help. l Guerra

I think you need some unmanaged code to do the trick. Look here for information. http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/10/CuttingEdge/ It explain windows hooks so you can listen to the message stream and such of another window. Good luck
